Feeling the cool, outside air engulf both our bodies, my lips escaped an audible and terrified shriek, involuntarily clutching onto his bare arms as I watched the ground getting closer and closer, seconds before I suddenly felt us both darting right back up towards the clear, starry sky.

The smooth yet powerful flap of his huge black wings reached my ears, a small sigh of relief escaping my lips as we gracefully glided through the air, the tall trees moving beneath us at a relatively fast pace, making me realize that we were currently flying towards an unknown destination. And still, even though I knew I should be absolutely terrified of where he could be taking me and what he could be planning to do to me, the truth was, I was physically and emotionally feeling so drained that I could barely keep my eyelids open, let alone fight him. So, instead of even trying to do all that, I defeatedly relaxed in his embrace, letting him carry me to wherever he had planned to.

    Several hours flew by, the time yet seeming so insignificant as I continued to lay in the exact same position, small tears falling at the sides of my head, drowning in an ocean of pure apathy.He never came back, yet I did not care, for his mere presence now seemed so loathe-worthy.Monster...The word played itself over and over again inside my mind, pounding in my skull like a broken record, each time slowly draining the life out of me, making me wish that I could simply cease to exist....She is a walking disaster! A monster, just like him!More tears made their way down my face, feeling my entire body so exhausted and heavy as I numbly climbed off the bed, the white oak floor seeming so cold underneath my feet as I slowly walked through the now darkened room, right towards the balcony.Hopefully this would end my miserable life...I bitterly thought, taking a glance over the metal railing, taking a deep breath as I mentally prepared myself. But before I could make a single move, a

    The strong white light caressed my closed eyelids, peaceful warmth engulfing my entire frame, making me feel so safe and serene...I readjusted my head on the somewhat hard pillow, slowly opening my eyes, momentarily blinded by the bright sunrays.Stretching my numb muscles, I finally felt the much larger, warm body half-trapped underneath me, my gaze instantly landing on the muscular and very naked torso my head was currently resting on. My eyes widened, my entire frame instantly freezing, various inappropriate scenarios passing through my mind as I laid completely still, too afraid to make a single move.How did we end up like this?Feeling his warm hand travel over my bare shoulder, my heartbeat instantly quickened, unconsciously holding my breath as I closed my eyes shut, not knowing what else I could possibly do.“I know you’re awake, Daya.”My eyelids snapped open at the sound of his husky yet lazy tone, utter confusion clouding my thoughts as I ultimately realized he had actual

    “W-what are you doing?” My voice trembled, burning heat creeping up my cheeks as his soft fingers gingerly touched my lips, trailing down my neck, straight towards the valley between my breasts, his other hand firmly gripping both my wrists as the other moved to slowly undo the buttons of my shirt, one by one.My breath hitched in my throat, the moment his fingers touched my skin, gently caressing my vulnerable and bare body, slowly making their way down my stomach, in that specific moment feeling thankful that my feminine parts were currently covered since he was practically straddling me, his thick thighs leaning against the soft mattress, either side of my hips.“R-Raphael...” His name choked its way out in a small whimper, my eyelids fluttering closed on their own accord once his gentle caress went past my navel, that weird tingle crossing my lower stomach, before it all suddenly stopped.The sounds of his heavily breathing reached my ears, my eyelids instantly snapping open, only

    I let out a small whine, uncomfortably tossing and turning in the large plush white chair, yet careful not to let the small blanket currently covering my almost bare body fall off and reveal way too much skin for my liking. Maybe the past two days didn’t exactly give me the time to dwell too much on it, but now that I knew about his current...internal battle, well let’s just say I didn’t feel too comfortable to be this naked around him anymore.If he loses control, who knows what he is capable of...Lightly shuddering at the mere thought I rose my sight, glancing at the male casually laying on the huge bed, leaning against the white leathered headboard, still holding that damned book he was reading from the past few hours.“Do I really have to walk around wearing only your t-shirts?”Blatantly ignoring me, he turned yet another page, to my utter frustration.“I feel way too...exposed,” I complained, watching how he finally lowered the book and gave me a single, bored glance before qui

    Letting the warm water rinse my body, I rested my forehead against the cold tiles, my heart beating fast as two very different emotions swarmed inside of me.Both anxiety and excitement swirled deep within me as I feared of the unknown, for I have never been to a party before -since my dearest mother always kept me locked inside the house, even back in The Citadel- but I also wanted to discover what it would be like...despite the constant fear that I could hurt someone, or even worse; get hurt.Turning off the water I then stepped out and proceeded to dry myself up, letting my damp curls fall over my back and dry on their own.Not even wasting a single second I then hurried to take out the clothes Raphael had brought me from that fancy bag, only to notice how different they looked compared to the ones I used to wear.Black laced underwear, way too small and revealing for my liking, matching with a same colour and fabric bra covered way too less as I put them on, awkwardly staring at m

    “Hold on,” He gently whispered in my hair, wounding his arms even tighter around my waist and with a single, powerful flap of his wings we were already darting towards the clear, starry sky.Feeling a little bit scared, I wrapped my arms even tighter around his neck, burying my face in the collar of his leather jacket.“Calm down, Red. I’m not going to drop you.”That spicy, masculine scent and the heat of his muscular body seemed to have a somewhat calming effect, my entire body gradually relaxing until everything slowly faded away, falling into a peaceful slumber.The soft thud of his boots landing on the ground reached my ears, slowly pulling me back to reality, feeling him gently placing me down.Taking a glance around, my gaze was instantly greeted with the beautiful sight of an enormous rose garden, illuminated by the bright moon rays, surrounding the huge, imposing castle standing all tall and mighty right before us.“Shall we?” His voice quickly drew my attention, noticing tha

    RaphaelHer lithe body graciously mirrored my every move, together guiding ourselves after the slow rhythm, her vibrant green eyes intensely staring right back into mine as we danced.Careful not to let my control slip away I took slow intakes of breath, gradually letting small amounts of her insanely tempting scent penetrate my nostrils, keeping a tiny but fair distance between us.Only the moment her attention finally averted from me, taking a casual glance around, that sickly sweet cherry blossom scent suddenly hit me even harder as she pressed her entire self against mine, burying her face in my chest like seeking for some kind of protection.“What’s the matter?” I calmly asked though on the inside I was anything but calm, intently holding my breath as I looked down upon her small form.“Gods...There are so many gods roaming this place...” She fearfully whispered, slowly raising her sight to look up at me.“Yeah, so? Why are you hiding?” I asked, raising one eyebrow.Warily taking

    DayaFearfully staring up at him, I clumsily scrambled backwards, warily watching how he also took a few slow steps forward, a very relaxed expression marring his aristocratic features.“There’s no need to run, darling. In spite of whatever dear Raph must’ve told you about me, I am not going to hurt you.”“I am not a rabid animal like those stupid lycans,” He calmly explained, the hint of a small smile dancing on his thin lips as he slightly bent forward.“Now, let me help you get up,” He stretched his hand out for me to take, expecting.I warily stared between his hand and composed expression for a few moments and since I didn’t find any other plausible option, I reluctantly reached his long, pale fingers, also feeling his surprisingly cool skin against mine.With one, gentle tug he effortlessly rose me up to my feet, like a newborn deer lightly wobbling on my broken heel.Careful not to let me fall, he instantly grabbed my elbow, unintentionally -or so I thought- pulling me even clo

    DayaI could hear my own pulse banging so wildly inside my entire body, from the tips of my fingers and all the way to the very center of my chest as I widely stared, unblinking at the raven-haired male sitting so casually on the very table I had almost lost my soul only a few days ago, that vivid memory still clinging so tightly against my mind, vehemently refusing to give me peace whatsoever.That face...Those frightening and hollow eyes...The painful echo of my own desperate wails...The sight of my own blood...Red...Red...“Red,”Rapidly blinking a few times I quickly snapped back to reality, my gaze refocusing back on Raphael.“It’s okay, come here,”I warily eyed his outstretched hand, my gaze trailing back to that beautifully angelic face, looking at the way those perfect lips curled into a kind and genuine smile and the way his dark brown and warm eyes gazed right into my own as he calmly waited.“Come on, it’s okay. You’ll be safe. I promise,” He gently beckoned, feeling my

    “So umm, do I have to draw that symbol thingy with my blood like Ricky does every time he summons Luc?” I asked uneasily, mimicking a small grimace as the thought of actually cutting myself and practically forcing Azrael to come back after everything that transpired in these last few hours seemed so...unappealing.After all, he strongly expressed his desire to get away from me as quick as possible only moments ago...I bitterly reminisced, watching Raph roll his eyes in annoyance before quickly responding in “duh” tone,“You guys have a bond, remember? So how about you just use that instead?”“Oh that...” I weakly mumbled, my eyes reluctantly lowering to the fiercely glowing symbol on the inside of my wrist.“Yeah that,” Raph’s retort reached my ears as my gaze still remained trained on the visible proof of the said bond, uncertainty flickering deep within me.Is it still there though?And if it is, is it still strong enough to call him right back to me?I wondered, my gaze trailing a

    I slammed my fists a few times against the marble flooring, feeling like my heart was being literally ripped in half as I stared at the now completely empty space, hopelessly broken.Again.“Why?” I shakily asked between hiccups as I rose my sight to the ceiling, stupidly hoping for some sort of “divine” answer.But before I could even take a second breath a small sob reached my ears, momentarily disrupting my mourning.Lightly frowning in confusion, I sat up straighter, then mindlessly wiped my cheeks before straining my hearing to focus better on the sound, soon enough hearing it again, only this time a little clearer.What the...As quick as I could, I rose myself to my feet, glancing at the small dents in the white marble at my feet before walking away, everything else momentarily forgotten as I headed straight towards the source.And not soon enough, I found myself exiting the house through the glass door at the back and walking all the way to that secluded spot between the trees

    Blake I could feel my body floating, drowned in a dark blue and starry abyss like the night sky as an oddly comforting warmth enveloped me completely.Strong, even thuds resonated in my ears like a white noise, their tempo so familiar as it was the only sound I could hear, my mind drifting through that same state of numbness for what felt like an eternity, surprisingly enough with no attempt to even try and escape...And that because it felt so good...Too euphoric and relaxing to even bother wondering how or why did I get here, any previous memories completely forgotten, deeply buried somewhere at the very bottom of my mind, preventing from any disturbance or unwanted distraction whatsoever.So I let myself fall even deeper and deeper, pointlessly swaying away like a falling leaf in the breezy wind, comforted by that same, constant sound.Until it suddenly changed its pace, turning considerably slower, for some reason the abrupt change creating a very peculiar and restless feeling d

    Taking a small, timid step closer I peered at the visibly pale, seemingly fallen into a deep slumber girl as her half-bare body rested in Death’s gentle embrace, skin on skin, safely covered by a white-fleeced blanket.So small and fragile she seemed, cradled in between his muscled arms like a child in its parent’s protective embrace as her head rested against his shoulder, her slender palm resting against the middle of his bare chest, gingerly supported by his hand around her wrist.A tiny, faint glow slowly pulsed from beneath, no doubt coming from that particular symbol deeply engraved in her skin, oddly enough pulsing at the same pace with Death’s faintly glowing as well midnight orbs as he sat in her bed with his back resting against the bed frame, unmoving.“What happened? Why is she like this?” I found myself quietly asking, careful as to not disturb their very peculiar yet peaceful moment as we had already intruded their privacy the moment we stepped inside her room, unannounc

    DayaPain...The only ever-persisting, all-too-familiar and nagging feeling once again made its presence known inside of me, this time taking the form of a dull headache, rather rudely waking me up from that dreamless and peaceful slumber.Gradually regaining awareness of my own body, my fingers lightly twitched before my eyes slowly opened, greeted by the simple whiteness of a ceiling.Slowly turning my head to the side I then hazily took in my surroundings, and with a slightly blurred sight I could notice the burgundy-colored wallpaper and dark furniture, completely failing to recognize anything at all.And since my mind continuously refused to give me a single hint of what transpired before finding myself in this unfamiliar room, I wobbly rose myself into a sitting position, not failing to also notice the stinging sensation prickling my skin, right in the middle of my chest.With a frown followed by a slight hiss, my fingers gently traced over the area, lowering my sight to take a

    I only blinked a few times, staring at his brooding figure, moments before he swiftly circled around me, immediately feeling the burning heat of his body barely touching my back as my attention was now trained on the fallen before me, letting me know that he had moved right behind me.And as I mindlessly watched Raph carelessly discard his jacket and slowly kneel right in front of me, I could feel Azrael’s hands gently grip my wrists, another shiver crawling up my spine as I could feel his breath tickling the shell of my ear, that tingling vibration lightly touching my back as he almost inaudibly said,“Just so you know, I was never going to take her life. I am not a monster, you know...”“I n-never said that,” I quickly stammered, feeling my heart already pounding inside my chest.“Then why do you keep staring at me like I’m your worst nightmare?”My breath faltered, completely lost for words, small tears already making their way down my cheeks as he quietly proceeded to carefully dr

    Holy fuck...Widely staring into each other’s eyes the time seemed to momentarily freeze, too lost for words or maybe too stunned by his so unexpected reaction to even try and wrack my brain for a coherent sentence.Holy shit...He’s losing it.Still trying to recover from that temporarily frozen state my gaze finally averted from his, darting to his tightly clenched fist instead, watching how the few remaining drops of alcohol dripped to the shard-littered floor, as expected with no trace of that crimson liquid whatsoever.Raising my sight to peer into those bottomless voids once again, I only noticed how with each desperate scream echoing in the background, that violent struggle glinting in his black irises slowly morphed, little by little but surely enough losing the battle with himself, until it turned into nothing but pure pain and despair.And before I even had the time to realize what was happening, like a furious storm he suddenly made his way straight towards the double doors,

    BlakeA cold shiver trailed down my spine as I still laid wide awake, numbly snuggling myself even closer against Ricky’s warm body.Even though I’ve chosen to stay with him for the night like I always did back when I were just a scared kid that needed comfort and protection, I’ve been lying around wide awake almost the entire night after all that crazy shit.Not even my brother’s calming presence could lull me to sleep.All those crazy moments, all those hurtful words kept replaying on and on in my mind, keeping me restless.My stupid mistake with Rem...Rem and Azrael’s fight...That certain unexpected disclosure of Luc and Raph’s true feelings...Daya’s sudden decision of freaking sacrificing herself after all that fucked-up shit...And the last, most painful event...Azrael’s sudden cold behavior towards me...Feeling my brother’s arm wrap even tighter around me I tightly clutched my hands against his hoodie, closing my eyelids shut as I felt tears once again threatening to slip at
